Astronomers found evidence that dark matter and neutrinos may interact, hinting at a "fundamental breakthrough" that ...

The new research suggests an alternative origin. Dark matter could have instead been born extremely hot, opening up ...

This is what the creation of a Higgs Boson looks like to the Large Hadron Collider. (Credit: CERN) The Higgs boson is, if ...

The universe thrums with quantum fields; and the particles of matter and force emerge as vibrational manifestations of the deep symmetries of these fields. The layers and reflecti ...

Notoriously ghostly particles called neutrinos may have revealed a crack in our understanding of all the particles and forces in the universe. The standard model of particle physics, which catalogues ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Current theories suggest that W and Z bosons acquire mass from interactions with the Higgs scalar field, but a new study suggests ...

Current theories suggest that W and Z bosons acquire mass from interactions with the Higgs scalar field, but a new study suggests that the higher dimensional structure of spacetime could be the actual ...

A unified theory – that explains the interactions in the standard model of particle physics from one common origin – has been ...

For centuries, the principle of symmetry has guided physicists towards more fundamental truths, but now a slew of shocking ...

The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study ...

Results from KATRIN and MicroBooNE strongly disfavour a light sterile-neutrino explanation of longstanding anomalies.

Why the universe is expanding faster and faster remains one of the biggest open questions in physics. Current theories cannot ...
